The Jeep Wrangler doesn't offer as many driving modes, as the Ford Bronco offers up to seven G.O.A.T. Modes® with its Terrain Management System™. There are unique HOSS Suspension Systems of different grades for the Ford Bronco. Raptor® models have a HOSS 4.0 Suspension with FOX™ Live Valve 3.1 Internal Bypass Semi-Active Dampers. The Jeep Wrangler has various 4x4 systems, but the Bronco's distinct setup delivers more high-performance off-road stability and support. Both SUVs offer all-terrain tires.

The largest all-terrain tires for the Jeep Wrangler are 35 inches.
The water fording crown is worn by the Ford Bronco, which can wade through depths of up to 36.4 inches. The Ford Bronco is built to cross creeks outside Rayne and handle swampy areas throughout the Bayou. The Jeep Wrangler's max water fording depth is 34 inches. Thanks to the larger all-terrain tires, the Ford Bronco has a higher ground clearance of 13.1 inches, topping the Jeep Wrangler at 12.9 inches.

Those figures top a two-door Wrangler at 13 and 32 cubic feet, respectively.
